Frequently Asked Questions

Geothermal – Not Cooling or Heating

Not Cooling? Check your thermostat settings. Be sure the temperature control selector is set below the current room temperature, and the system switch is on COOL or AUTO and the fan switch is set to ON for continuous airflow or AUTO if the blower is to operate only while the air conditioner is operating. Try to get the air conditioner to turn on by lowering the thermostat to the lowest temperature setting. Check the air filters to see if they are dirty, if the airflow from your registers seems low. Make sure all registers are open and nothing is sitting on or in front of them. Check the power disconnect switch by each unit (indoor and outdoor). Check the fuse/breaker at the electrical box for both the indoor and outdoor units. If problem persists, call us at (724) 789-7197
